The complete mitochondrial genome of Indian star tortoise () was characterized having 16,446 bp nucleotides encoding 37 genes in circular orientation comprising 13 protein-coding genes, 22 tRNA genes and two rRNA genes. The lengths of 12S and 16S ribosomal RNA were 973 bp and 1600 bp. A non-coding control region (D-Loop) of 966 bp was identified between tRNA and tRNA having seven interrupted tandem repeats. A single A + 1 frameshift insertion in the ND3 gene (ND3-174) was also discovered. The complete mitogenome of would contribute in deeper understanding of the evolutionary dynamics and conservation effort of vulnerable testudine families.
印度星龟（ ）的完整线粒体基因组的特征为具有16446个碱基对的核苷酸，以环状方向编码37个基因，包括13个蛋白质编码基因、22个tRNA基因和两个rRNA基因。12S和16S核糖体RNA的长度分别为973个碱基对和1600个碱基对。在tRNA 和tRNA 之间鉴定出一个966个碱基对的非编码控制区（D环），具有七个中断的串联重复序列。还发现ND3基因（ND3-174）中有一个单一的A + 1移码插入。 的完整线粒体基因组将有助于更深入地了解易危龟鳖类家族的进化动态和保护工作。
